## FAQ
**Does Brifo work with FaceTime?**

Yes. Brifo captures FaceTime calls on macOS via local system audio. Audio or video FaceTime calls both work.

**Will the other party know I'm recording on FaceTime?**

Brifo doesn't notify FaceTime participants. Capture is local. Whether to inform participants is your call, as with any meeting recording.

**Can Brifo capture FaceTime audio-only calls?**

Yes. Works the same for audio-only FaceTime as for video FaceTime.

**Does Brifo work with FaceTime on iPhone?**

No. Brifo is macOS only. Capture happens on your Mac during the FaceTime call.

**Why don't other meeting tools support FaceTime?**

Bot-based tools need calendar integration and a way to add a participant. FaceTime supports neither. Brifo captures system audio directly, which works regardless.

**Is Brifo good for one-on-one FaceTime customer calls?**

Yes. Structured notes and action items generated automatically. See the [consultants use case](/for/consultants) for the specific workflow.

**Does Brifo draft follow-up emails after a FaceTime call?**

Yes. Alongside the notes and action items, Brifo drafts a follow-up email reflecting what was agreed, ready to edit and send.

**Can I recall what was said in past FaceTime calls?**

Yes. Meeting Q&A chat searches across every captured call, so you can ask 'what did we agree on the last FaceTime with the investor?' and get the exchange.
